West Town
7.6 out of 10, Good, (260 reviews)
"Everyone was friendly, welcoming and accommodating. The facility was clean, but do know they were making some repairs. Kitchen had what you needed. I could have used a fuller pillow, but that was no biggie. Close to a grocery store, pharmacy, Ulta (which was so helpful!), and some eateries. Close to the Metro, which was great! Not as close to downtown as I would have liked, but it wasn't too far either. Definitely a place worth checking out!"
